Robert De Niro Goes On Rant About Donald Trump On ‘Real Time’: ‘Such A Mean, Nasty, Hateful Person’

Robert De Niro cursed out former president Donald Trump on Bill Maher‘s talk show, claiming Trump supporters want “to f— with people.”

The 80-year-old renowned actor went on a rant during Friday’s episode of Real Time with Bill Maher. De Niro has been publicly anti-Trump since the 2016 presidential election.

“He’s such a mean, nasty, hateful person. I’d never play him as an actor, because I can’t see any good in him. Nothing. Nothing at all. Nothing redeemable in him.”

De Niro and Maher discussed the election polls from the New York Times with Maher prompting De Niro’s thoughts on Trump being in the lead. De Niro then turned his attention to Trump supporters, saying, “They want to f— with people, screw them because they’re unhappy about some.”

De Niro added, “[Trump’s] a sociopathic, psychopathic, malignant narcissist. He’s a dangerous person.”

In October 2023, De Niro bashed Trump in a speech at The New Republic’s Stop Trump Summit, calling the former president “evil.” At a press conference at the Cannes Film Festival in 2023, De Niro also compared his role as William Hale in the film Killers of the Flower Moon to Trump.
